It's feels weird, vindicating and yet incredibly frustrating to have an observation that you've said about certain a member of yer family for years – though not to that person's face – pointed out by someone who isn't a blood relative. I kinda wish one of my secondary school English teachers...

I know I deserve better. So does my mother... I just wishing my sisters would realise that as well. The oldest went and guilt tripped me in order to get me out the house, because I seemed in bit of a mood; when I was merely focusing more on the task I was doing for myself – which is apparently...

I'm not feeling too well. I've got a sore throat and I hurt the side of my right foot, but I've been resting up and am slowly getting better.

Still dwelling on what happened the other day. Wondering how my mother seems less bothered by it than I am. Wishing that things were different than they are with my family. But sadly I don't think things will ever change for the better. Not now... I doubt my sisters have the maturity required...

Yeah... big time. Trust and self-doubt are massive issues for me. So, I can very much relate to all of what you described, sadly. Especially the questioning other people's motives, as well my own instincts. But then I had quite a dysfunctional family environment where I was conditioned to...

Basically, the short of it is: I'm tired of being an emotional shock absorber. Tired of always being the one that has to begrudgingly pick up the pieces. Tired of being the example I never had growing up.

How am I feeling? Well... It's hard to say, really. Ah mean, I'm experiencing multiple feelings at the moment. None of them positive. Angry. Depressed. Miserable. Unhappy. Troubled. Alone. Just processing the usual, upsetting dysfunctional, toxic family BS that I've been conditioned to...

I'm feeling pretty good, all things considered. I had a good night out last night. My oldest sister and I went and saw Kings of Leon in Glasgow. Best concert we've attended in a long time, despite the concert having to be stopped twice, briefly, because drunken fights broke out in the crowd...

That's very true. Those high school memories were just the first thing that came to my mind when my sister said she'd get a busking permit. But I will look ahead and start preparing for it and have a think about putting together so sort of setlist. And before all that, I'll go to one of those...

I know. Even though I don't really brag about it much. 😊 Mind you, I probably should. 😆🤣😁 And I realised these are really great opportunities for me. I'm just in 2 minds as to what I should do. 🤔 As far as: should I just noodling about, improvise and let whatever the first guitar riff or...

Also, I'm not as nervous as I should be. Y'know, considering that yesterday, - not long before I posted in this thread - while out for a car ride around town, my oldest sister gave me a challenge that: in a year's time - August 2023 - I've to go busking on the streets of Edinburgh during that...

So, about a day ago - or it might be a couple of days now. at the time o' me writing this - my oldest sister mentions to me that this coffee shop in Kettleholm is going to start doing open-mic nights every Thursday from 5 pm to 7 pm. Kettleholm is another wee village in the Scottish Borders...

Quite chuffed, actually. My brother-in-law helped me in assembling a couple of kallax units today. Must've got them done in less than an hour. Though, I wasn't really keeping track o' time. But we got them assembled together quickly, anyway. So, that's me now got more storage space for my...

I've been feeling a bit nostalgic, lately. So I've been listening to some of the bands I used to listen to during my teens. Currently listening to Alien Ant Farm quite a bit.

Oh, I set my own goals. And getting myself back into shape was one of them because I've kinda neglected my physical health a bit in the last few years. Though, the thing for next summer wasn't a goal I'd originally had in mind at all. My oldest sister made the suggestion to me, and I jokingly...

Ah don't know how am feeling, really. Well, aside from being absolutely roasting due to the hot weather of late, I'd probably say I'm feeling kinda all over the place in terms of my thoughts. Uncertain. Unsure o' myself. And given a more recent development as of today, this afternoon...

Oh, just thought of another goal... Get over my insecurities about my music, and just put out there for others to hear and listen to. ^ * I suppose this is an expansion upon the 3rd goal that I listed.

Great question and forum thread, lily. :)(y) Here's my goals: Keep my mum motivated and help her overcome her struggle with anxiety. Spend more time with my mum Stop allowing negative self-talk from dictating what I can and can't do. Get back into my old routine and start taking care of...

Had a bit of scare today that really shook me... my mum fell as she was coming upstairs to my room this morning. I was awake and just about to change out of my pyjamas when it happened. The thud of her falling and not getting an initial response when I shouted on her really made me panic and...
